paratus applicable particularly to lumberV and other driers.

The invention will be fully described hereinafter and the features of novelty pointed out in the appended claims.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying. drawings, forming apart of this specification,"

in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding partsin all thefigures.

Figure l is anelevationofmy improved apparatus. Fig. 2 is a plan view thereof, and Fig. 3 is a sectional detail on lan enlarged scale.

The apparatus comprises an inclined steampipe A, connectedat its lower end with a'trap' (not shown) for the iwater. of condensation and at its upperend withfthe boilerV or other source of-steamfsupply., -From the pipe A rise pipes B, connected with .transverse,hori-v zontal heads C, which are preferably slightly inclined downwardly at .least interiorly to?n Ward their connection withthe pipes B,'as.. With each head C are connected the lower ends of the inclined lonbest shown in Fig. 3.

gitudinal tubes D, arranged in two superposed sets (in break-joint fashion) and closed at their upper forward ends by screw-caps E,` The lower set plugs, or equivalent devices. y of tubes D, connected with the rearuhead C, may rest on the forward head, as. shown in Fig. 1. All these pipes and tubes are arranged in the room to: be heated-for instance, when applied toa lumber-drier the heating apparatus 'will be located between4 the walls F and above the oor F', yet below the tracks G, on which the lumber-cars are l in front thereof.

nection-pipes B, and the heads C to the in` clined tubes D, which actin the samemanner as the sections of a" radiator, heating the room and the lumber or other articles conthe inclined main steam-pipe A and passing t0 the water-trap.

The apparatus is very simple and its parts are readily accessible for repairs.

Having thusv described my invention, I-

desire to secure by Letters claim as new and Patentn y 15A heating apparatus comprlsing'an inclined steam-pipe, connection-.pipes rising therefrom, heads located at the upper ends ofthe connection-pipes, and inclined tubes closed at their upper ends and having their' lower ends'connected with thesaid head, said tubes being arranged in two sets, one at a higher lever than the other, the upper portions of the tubes of the lower vset connected with one head resting upon the head located 2. 'A heating apparatus comprising an inclined' steam pipe, connection pipes rising therefrom, heads located. at the upper ends of the connection-pipes, and inclined tubes closed at their upper ends and having their `lower ends connected with the said head, said tubesY being arranged in 'two sets,`one at a higher level than the other,`the upper por- .tions of the tubes ofthe lower set connected with one head resting upon the head located infront thereof, and the tubes 0f one set being located in break-j oint fashion relatively to those of theother set, that is, out of verti cal alinement therewith.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name "tofthis specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.-
